    hands down among the top 5 coolest cars in the past decade. if you are a motor head who's into track performance, got yourself a collection of exotics and the BAC mono is not in your lineup, somethings wrong with you. This would be the first purchase in my collection, because it is the best rendition of an f1 car for the road. its timesless and hot as heck!. If there is anything worth possibly waiting for, is an electric version of the bac mono. aside from a lack of exhaust sound, thats a mindbusting idea. (and its been done before via the experimental Ariel Atom x1, which was a killer in its day

    Love this type of cars, it brings you back to the basics. Try to get some time in a Noble (I do own the similar Rossion here in the US and it is amazing how organic the feeling is without any electronic nannies and a 6-speed Getrag) or a Radical. Although the BAC might be more formula oriented, I think the above mentioned "cousins" of it can offer more diverse and rewarding experience not to mention that you can enjoy it even more on a daily basis regardless of weather. Great video!

  • @djphineart
    @djphineart Před 5 lety +1

    The carbon wheels and disc combo is crucially all unsprung weight so typically that’s worth conservatively 4x sprung weight. That will transform the already amazing performance.
    These would definitely be on my option list...

    • @wolflegion_
      @wolflegion_ Před 5 lety

      Exactly what I was thinking. The absolute weight-saving is not even the talking point, it’s that it’s all in the unsprung weight. 30 kilo’s less unsprung is amazing!

    • @Erowens98
      @Erowens98 Před 5 lety

      Yeah, most people underestimate unsprung weight. When i upgraded the wheels on my 350z, i lost about 5kg per wheel and saved half a second on average in a 90 second lap. That's half a second for 20kg in a 1450kg car.
      I am no pro driver though so my results may be inconsistent.
